Showing Original Post only (View all)Greta Thunberg's brilliant response when a journalist told her that Trump said she was an angry young woman: [View all]
Greta Thunberg, a young woman, has become one of the most famous people in the world without saying very much. She just does things. And that drives many middle-aged men nuts because they simply canât tolerate the idea that a young woman has 100x more influence than they do.

What irritates many people â particularly men â about Greta Thunberg is that she is a young woman simply exercising her right to speak out on issues about which she feels strongly. So, ironically, those people are bothered by her sense of citizenshipâ¦a value supposedly cherished in âThe West.â

Her anger is aimed at things that are fucked up. Trump is obviously so fucked up he doesn't even know he is fucked up.
